该基因是植物同源结构域（phd）样指（phf）家族的成员。它编码一种蛋白，具有两个PhD型锌指结构域，表明在转录调控中可能起作用，定位于核仁。影响该基因编码区或转录片段剪接的突变与borjeson-forssman-lehmann综合征（bfls）有关，bfls是一种以认知功能障碍、癫痫、性腺功能减退、代谢低下、肥胖、面部皮下组织肿胀、眼睑裂窄和耳朵大为特征的疾病。交替剪接导致多个转录变体，编码不同的亚型。[由RefSeq提供，2010年6月]
This gene is a member of the plant homeodomain (PHD)-like finger (PHF) family. It encodes a protein with two PHD-type zinc finger domains, indicating a potential role in transcriptional regulation, that localizes to the nucleolus. Mutations affecting the coding region of this gene or the splicing of the transcript have been associated with Borjeson-Forssman-Lehmann syndrome (BFLS), a disorder characterized by cognitive disability, epilepsy, hypogonadism, hypometabolism, obesity, swelling of subcutaneous tissue of the face, narrow palpebral fissures, and large ears. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants, encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
